4.6 NetFinity Services for NetWare
NetFinity Services for NetWare allows you to monitor and manage NetWare
servers remotely. With the NetFinity programs running on the server, the
administrator can anticipate and correct many problems before they become
serious enough to affect the server. NetFinity Services for NetWare will also
enhance other hardware systems management tasks, including hardware
inventory and resource allocation.
NetFinity Services for NetWare does not include a user interface for use at the
server console. Because NetWare is designed to be most effective when used in
a client/server environment, monitoring and maintenance of the NetWare server
must be performed remotely from a NetFinity Manager system.
4.6.1 System Requirements
The minimum system requirements for the server in which the NetFinity Services
for NetWare will be installed are:
•
Novell NetWare 3.11 or later
•
4 MB hard disk space
•
A LAN adapter card
•
IPX communications protocol
•
CLIB.NLM dated 5/19/94 or later
4.6.2 Installing NetFinity Services for NetWare
NetFinity Services for NetWare can be installed in the following three ways:
•
Using ServerGuide CD (see 4.3, “Installing NetWare 4.1 with ServerGuide” on
page 118)
•
Using diskettes on the NetWare Server
•
Using diskettes from a workstation
You can make the diskettes from the ServerGuide CD using the diskette factory
feature.
4.6.2.1 Installing with Diskettes on the NetWare Server
To install NetFinity Services for NetWare on your NetWare server:
1. Turn on the server.
2. Start the NetWare operating system.
3. Insert NetFinity Services for NetWare Diskette #1 into the diskette drive.
4. Start the NetFinity Installation program.
Type
LOAD A: NETFINST and then press Enter.
5. Specify a new target path for the program files or accept the default path.
The default path is SYS:NETFIN. Press Enter.
Note
If the new path includes a directory that does not exist, the installation
program will ask you whether you want this directory to be created. Type
Y and press Enter to confirm this and continue the installation.
The files are transferred from the diskette to hard disk.
